Mapping Out The Mysteries

notes:
grit those teeth
that fist so tight
never been a fighter
but tonight might be that night
sometimes it seems
we only just get hurt
licking at our wounds
before returning to the dirt
all the urges yearned
all the cruel lessons learned
there's a fire in my eyes now
i'm watching bridges burn
and yet maybe...
someday yet...
these sudden streaks
of bright pastel light
cut across a pane of gray
city rages back to life
now content, it seems,
emerging from the rain
distant joyful screams
between the siren's ebb and fade
all anger subsides
as i swim the tide of light
there's a fire in my eyes now
as i watch this world shine
and yet maybe...
someday yet...
and yet maybe...
someday yet...
the sun might finally gaze
as i finally slay the beast
the moon might salivate
at the prospect of the feast
the earth might shudder
beneath these feet
all my schemes might finally rend
as i finally do begin
dancing past the veil and
mapping out the mysteries
